(4/4) Even if a video remains on our site, it doesn’t mean we endorse/support that viewpoint. There are other aspects of the channel that we’re still evaluating– we’ll be in touch with any further updates.

Update on our continued review–we have suspended this channel’s monetization. We came to this decision because a pattern of egregious actions has harmed the broader community and is against our YouTube Partner Program policies. More here:https://yt.be/help/xLtT

His channel hasn't been suspended/banned/deleted, he's just been demonetized, like tons of other political channels, and even those that aren't political . . . so how is it censorship? I mean, he can still upload, and I'm sure he can still make money by other means.

You are forcing him to earn his money in other ways just because of his political views. If this was the other way it would be considered extremely homophobic. What if youtube demonetized a channel because its leftist or LGBTQ+ associated. Its disgusting

So you're saying that's okay? I mean, that's an opinion you're allowed to have I guess. You can be okay with Crowder or any LGBTQ channel being demonetized, but personally I don't agree.
